Butter Cake Bread Recipe

Yields1 Serving

Butter cake is actually a cake bread or batter bread recipe. It includes a half a cup of butter and a cup and a half of sugar as ingredients and the final product before baking has a batter-like consistency. This is due to the fact that baking powder is used instead of yeast. Because the batter is without yeast it creates some challenges for anyone using their bread machine to make this recipe.

INGREDIENTS:

¾ cup of milk at room temperature

½ teaspoon of salt

1 ½ cups of sugar

½ cup of butter (1 stick) at room temperature

2 eggs at room temperature

2 teaspoons of baking powder

2 teaspoons of vanilla extract

1 ½ cups of all purpose-flour

it asks for a crust setting, select medium crust.

In The Oven:

Select a setting that does not have a rising cycle at the end of the setting such as a pasta dough or cookie dough setting. If you use the standard dough cycle, pour out the batter into a lightly buttered 8-inch square baking pan after the kneading or mixing cycle, and before the rising cycle begins.

Bake at 400 degrees F (205 degrees C) for 45 to 50 minutes or until a toothpick, wooden skewer or knife can be inserted into the center and comes out dry. It it’s wet, bake another ten minutes and repeat until the insert comes out dry.
